2025 Diversity Job Fairs Part 2

By Marion Davis

This article is a continuation of EmployDiversity’s two-part series on diversity and inclusion job fairs in the US. As changes in the US occur with further pushback in the Trump Administration against diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) and attempts to dismantle DEI programs, deeply-rooted advocacy for equal opportunities remain alongside an understanding that community and social impact has a positive ripple effect. Even if DEI programs in an organization are dismantled, especially in government organizations, the fact that many private corporations have continued to send recruiters to diversity and inclusion fairs for 2025 is a positive sign. What seems to be here to stay are the demand from consumers and talent for an employer brand that emphasizes greater diversity and inclusion and the understanding from research that greater diversity among teams and leadership can lead to significantly higher innovation revenue

The following cities contain the remaining list alphabetically of selected cities in the US with various diversity and inclusion job fairs. While event details are accurate as of publication, we recommend confirming specifics through the provided links and registering in advance. Part One of this two-part series included Alexandria, Virginia, through Milwaukee, Wisconsin. For recurring series such as DiversityX, only select dates are featured to showcase a variety of events. Be sure to explore additional dates through the relevant resources. 

Keep checking our blog for similar resources on upcoming diversity and inclusion job fairs across cities as many recruiters plan events quarterly rather than a year in advance.
